Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHI JKLMENOAPNNQKRSTNUVW XYZNA2UB2C2A| With what a glory comes and goes the year | A |
| The buds of spring those beautiful harbingers | B |
| Of sunny skies and cloudless times enjoy | C |
| Life's newness and earth's garniture spread out | D |
| And when the silver habit of the clouds | E |
| Comes down upon the autumn sun and with | F |
| A sober gladness the old year takes up | G |
| His bright inheritance of golden fruits | H |
| A pomp and pageant fill the splendid scene | I |
| - | |
| There is a beautiful spirit breathing now | J |
| Its mellow richness on the clustered trees | K |
| And from a beaker full of richest dyes | L |
| Pouring new glory on the autumn woods | M |
| And dipping in warm light the pillared clouds | E |
| Morn on the mountain like a summer bird | N |
| Lifts up her purple wing and in the vales | O |
| The gentle wind a sweet and passionate wooer | A |
| Kisses the blushing leaf and stirs up life | P |
| Within the solemn woods of ash deep crimsoned | N |
| And silver beech and maple yellow leaved | N |
| Where Autumn like a faint old man sits down | Q |
| By the wayside a weary Through the trees | K |
| The golden robin moves The purple finch | R |
| That on wild cherry and red cedar feeds | S |
| A winter bird comes with its plaintive whistle | T |
| And pecks by the witch hazel whilst aloud | N |
| From cottage roofs the warbling blue bird sings | U |
| And merrily with oft repeated stroke | V |
| Sounds from the threshing floor the busy flail | W |
| - | |
| O what a glory doth this world put on | X |
| For him who with a fervent heart goes forth | Y |
| Under the bright and glorious sky and looks | Z |
| On duties well performed and days well spent | N |
| For him the wind ay and the yellow leaves | A2 |
| Shall have a voice and give him eloquent teachings | U |
| He shall so hear the solemn hymn that Death | B2 |
| Has lifted up for all that he shall go | C2 |
| To his long resting place without a tear | A |
